Application
As solutions offered by us are need‐based, customization is key to success, since one’s need will be vastly different from that of the other like, for instance, some companies stress the need for quality print; some others target a printer that will work on a specific substrate. There is, then, a load of in‐situ challenges ‐ unceasing production, adaptability to varied working conditions and, differences in packaging requirements.
